It’s hot! Wasn’t sure whether this was going to be a McLaren or RedBull track, but I think the high track temperatures will tip it the McLaren way. If you’ve got to have sprints, this at least is a decent choice of track to do it on. This is also another GP where Pirelli are skipping a compound, so we have C1, C3, C4 - it didn’t work at all in Spa, no idea whether to expect it have more effect here.

Seems like it’s probably a “follow the leader” mandate for the first few corners or a “no mitigation swap back if you touch” type thing?
Sounds like Lando got a right talking too and Oscar is happy with the result of the chat! I hope it's not going to be 'who ever gets to the first corner first stays in that position' type of outcome.
